Beschreibung

Farm line map of the area, mostly on the Upper East side of Manhattan, from 76th to 92nd Streets, Second to Seventh Avenues. Full original color by lot. Modern linen backing, with very light staining near the top, some earlier areas of cracking or chipping are present. This is one of the large, and now very scarce, which showed 17th and 18th century farm lines superimposed over the contemporary grid system. Very bright and colorful, these maps are among the most detailed 19th century maps for individual Manhattan neighborhoods. Much of the left side of this map would, by the time it was published, be part of Central Park, though that is not shown on this map. There are notes of sales and conveyances at the top right.
